Do you meet new friends online often?

If you do, is it worth it? Where do you meet them online?

Do you meet new friends online often?
Okay, here's my story, and I'm leaving plenty out.

Met this girl on line a few yrs ago who lived about 50 miles from me. We emailed back and forth several weeks and I began to look foward to hearing from her. Anyway, about a month after we met online, we met for lunch. We weren't sitting down 5 minutes when she said she wanted to have sex...well, perhaps the term she used was a bit more explicit.

I thought I had figured out a way to get away from her but she managed to follow me home and later knocked on my door.

Well, being the ace #1 idiot that I am, I let her in. I had been slicing oranges in the kitchen and there was a knife on the counter. After a few minutes of conversation, the phone rang and it was my Mom, who never calls. I took the call into my office as I thought something might be wrong. So...when I finish the call, I walk back into the kitchen, the girl has the knife AND this really wierd look in her eye. She asks me if that was another women, I say "yea, my mom!". She replies, 'you're a liar' and throws the knife at me.

What is worth it? Scared the sh!t outta me, but I got a great story to tell........

Would I do it again? Nope....... the next time they might not miss!!
Reply:I have in the past but nothing worth while. Seems to me like nothing better than being up front with whom you want to meet. Sooner or later someone will be there in front of you. I still hopeing to meet her soon!
Reply:I do some time's and it's o.k. but you have to be careful who you, talk to on the Internet on that note pen pal's on the Internet are cool to chat with once in a while. When you get online. Basically some time get on myspace, that's alright too.

Can you really meet good friends in church?

i just moved to a new city and want to make new friends. i don't frequent bars or nightclubs.

will attending church help me make new friends? i don't want to stay home alone on weekends. any suggestions what church?

Can you really meet good friends in church?
Try different churches of faith. Then the one you really feel the most in touch with, stay with it. I also suggest the library.
Reply:sure
Reply:Yes,you can.I met a nice friend that invited me to her church.
Reply:any!
Reply:Basically anywhere.
Reply:Find a church that is alive. Not one that is just hymns and standing and sitting. A church where Christ is really alive will be a great place to find friends that will last an eternity.
Reply:OK the whole friends who will last an eternity is kinda scary, I would suggest going somewhere you like, like maybe to a park or something like that? If you have a dog take it to the doggy park, you meet people with interesting things to talk about and not just people who wanna "save" you all the time, I'm sorry and don't mean to offend but most church people are very judgmental. *ducks the flying bibles* Sorry if I offended anyone.

Do you think I'll meet more friends after high school?

I am having a tough time finding and making friends in high school right now. Everyone just seems really clicky and can't accept you as a new friend "because they already have enough friends", if you know what I mean. Or I'll find someone and I'll find out they really did not like me, or just wanted to use me for something. I'm starting to get a little lonely (I try to occupy myself all the time), but I don't really have anything fun to do on weekends and stuff. I'm just worried I'll be like this all my life...but looking at my parents they rarely see any of there friends from high school. I've though about moving schools, but it seems like it would be a lot more hassel than it's worth.

Do you think I'll meet more friends after high school?
There was so much nonsense BS in my school that I found I really didn't like it. High school kids are too concerned with what other people think to relax and be themselves. Instead of accepting you for who you are, they're probably to busy evaluating your social status and how being your friend would effect them. Its a crappy atmosphere. I had a much better social life in college and post college because people tend to be more mature and with time you'll be able to make friends easier and decide what people are worth keeping in your life...
Reply:Been a loner all my life. High school was some pretty

rough times. After graduation, College, a job, the Navy

the postal service and now retirement. Haven't been lonely

since highschool, and am still somewhat of a loner

Meet My girls Male Friends?

Am I wrong for not wanting to meet my girlfriend’s male friend she known since Junior high (Were both 23)? She wants me to. I have been with my girlfriend for over a year. We broke up for around a month in between. She had a brief relationship with a male she said was her friend in between. So, I’m not interested in meeting any of her male friends no matter who it is and how long. I’m not saying she can’t have them, but I’m not gong to act all friendly towards any of them. I was very lenient with whom she was friends with in the past but I’m not having that anymore. She has kept very short leash on me in the past so I’ve decided to do the same thing. Am I wrong? Should I Lighten up? What should I do?

Meet My girls Male Friends?
If you don't meet her friends, she may end up giving them up because it could cause problems between you. Then she'll just resent you for making her feel like that was her only option.

You don't have to be overly friendly with her male friends, but if you care about her, you should atleast give it a chance. You never know, you could be way cooler than them and not have to worry about weather or not she may like any one of them as more than a friend later on.

Keep your friends close, and your enemies closer!
Reply:She is with you now and I think you should go meet them to make her happy but always remember she's your girl, not thiers.
Reply:I say lighten up. It would be understandable if she cheated on you with one of them or she was hanging out with them all the time but you just got the green monster. You have no need to be jealous and I respect your wish on why you don't want to meet them but come on I would want my boyfriend to meet all of my friends because those are some of the factors of what makes a person who they are and you should be interested in who she hangs out with. It never hurts to try!
Reply:i personally feel the same as you and want to beat him up. but if she didnt like you then she would still be with that guy. i wouldnt meet him personally
Reply:your jeolous ovously it hard you seeing her with another guy even it her guy friend you should see her friend itwill be good for you and her youll make her happy and how do u know your ex's friend and you wont get along great give it a try it wount hurt
Reply:I think you should lighten up.

Meet the guy, that will help you know what her guy friends are like, and who knows, he just might end up being your friend too.
Reply:Yup, you're wrong.

You're thinking of this as a challenge, something to be defeated.

Look at the opportunity!

You get to meet someone who's known her for YEARS, has insights into why she is how she is based on past experiences that happened to her.

What are you worried about? She may like him better?

Fine, if she likes him better, she'll dump you anyway, why not use the situation to your advantage?

It's not a threat, it's an opportunity, use it.

You may hate him, you may not, she's not asking you to become best friends, just be polite.

Luck

Ways to meet new friends??

Hey, i find it difficult to find people that i get along with, most people where i live are usually gothic, emo or that sort of thing, which isnt really what im in to.

To descibe me best i would say im a bit ruff but like to do the right thing and not go off drinking, partying and such.

What i want to know is if there is anyone else that arent into the whole rebel, emo and gothic thing and if there are any good websites where i can meet people to talk to.

That is all, Thanks

Ps. I have nothing against the people i said above, im just not into that stuff..

Ways to meet new friends??

Reply:You can get on myspace, tagged and different websites like that to make good friends.

BF not wanting to meet my friends?

I've been knowing my BF for 2 years now and we've officially been together for 6 months. Since we've been together, he slacks in areas that mean a lot to me. He did not get me something for my birthday, christmas, or valentines. I got something for him all of those holidays. To make matters worse, I've asked him to attend partys/functions with me or socialize with my family, and he just continues to say no.I know that he's not trying to disown our relationship because we do go to the movies, and we've went to the beach once, but im just tired of him making up excuses because he does not like to get out and meet new ppl. "I'm sick, I'm low on cash, I don't wanna meet them....". He says I make it a big deal and makes him want to say no. he says he feels like I'm tryin to show him off, but that's not true. I just get tired of attending get togethers and everyone has their bf/gf and I'm always by myslef. everyone knows i have a bf, but they never meet him. we argue abt this constantly.

BF not wanting to meet my friends?
It sounds like he's not even attempting to make that extra effort to make you happy. You need to ask yourself if this is really what you want in a relationship or if it's time to leave. It may be hard, but sometimes there's a point you need to break things off. Good luck.

Where did you meet your friends?

I often see lists of places that people suggest humans are likely to meet new people. I am wondering were people actually meet people with whom they form lasting friendships.

Where did you meet your friends?
mostly on school
Reply:MAINLY AT SCHOOL.... ;)

Where, when, and HOW DID YOU MEET some of your TIGHTEST FRIENDS?

I met my closest friend in school during elementary (can't remember what grade exactly) and we met because people kept saying we are really alike, and I had wanted to meet her.

We are really close now, but I hate that we are going to different high schools. She is the only friend that I have that I actually can talk to about the important things. Everyone else is just with drama.

Where, when, and HOW DID YOU MEET some of your TIGHTEST FRIENDS?
I met my closest friend in playschool! We're still really close although, she goes to a different college, She lives near me, so I see her at least 3 or 4 times a week.

I met my other closest friend in high school, We were actually never that close until we were 20 and went travelling together, That brought us much closer.

Reply:My best friend (who's a guy) and I met a church camp. I walk in to the main cabin to sign in with my church group before opening. And out of the blue this guy comes up behind me and goes like "PSHHHHHH". I turn around and in my head I'm thinking "what the heck?" so I go "PSHHHH" and then it turns into a big "PSHHHING" contest. It was hilarious! We've been friends ever since.

Camp, of course, but i hardly ever see them
Reply:i knew this girl because she was in my year when i started secondary school. last year we had to sit next to each other in English and we weren't too chuffed about it but now we are best friends. other people are just convenient friends-the ones you hang around with because you have to. but me and her are TIGHT!!!
Reply:At school. I was in a fight with other friends and they were like "do you want to sit with us" and we've been friends ever since.
Reply:1) Kindergarten: Our teacher said to look to a person beside and wave and chat for a second so we could practice this thing where if we're talking and she holds up her hand we stop immediately.

2) First Grade: I forget exactly, I think we just started talking and BAM! We we friends. Lol.

3) Third Grade: We were in the same class, didn't really talk a lot, found out we rode the same bus, nothing much, found out we lived on the same street, sat together, and we've been friends ever since.

when: 6th grade

how: I actually don't remember! we just started talking and we became really good friends. she's one of the people I trust with a lot of things and she's really good at giving advice.
Reply:I'm currently a senior in high school, and I met my best friend in 7th grade, our first year of middle school. We went to separate elementary schools, so I knew nothing about her. One day I noticed she left her binder at her locker and caught up to her and told her she forgot it. It's weird, but I can never remember how I became friends with me. Friendship just seems to develop so gradually and naturally that it's impossible to pinpoint its beginning. I don't know what I'd do without my best friend, though; she's my other half and we always have fun when we hangout together, no matter the location.
Reply:I have 5 really close friends that i can tell anything to...We all met in different ways but they are all like family to me..

1: I met her when i was 4 yrs old and we have been friends ever since. It started out in pre-school and she has become like a sister to me since. i don't know what i would do without her. we have been besties for a little over 11 yrs

2: I'm not sure when we met but we just started talking one day and have become closer over the last couple years. We met at school.

3: This girl used to be one of my worst enemies but now she is one of my best friends. We never really liked each other through middle school though neither of us really had a reason but when high school came along we took spanish together and quickly became friends, then she started dating one of my guy friends and we have become even closer. I love her to death and wish i had started talking to her sooner

4: Number four i have known since birth she is my cousin and we are so much alike its not even funny. She was raised with 4 brothers so i'm like the sister she never got. I can trust her with anything

5: This is my best guy friend. We just recently reconnected because i knew him back about 5 years ago and when he moved out of state with lost touch but through the last month that i have been talking to him our friendship has rekindled. He is the only guy i can talk to about problems and know he's actually listening and i thank him for that...

Thats about it those are the people i am proud to call my besties and i love them all to death can't imagine life without them.... :)

Reply:I met all my closest friends in church.

EDIT: why the thumbs downs? I lost touch with most of my school friends, but my church friends have been there the whole time. I met one when I was 3, one when I was 7, one from birth, and my husband at 13. The question was asked, the question was answered. If your didn't come from church, then fine. But that doesn't mean there is anything wrong with it.

I am in the same boat as you, except I am in college; I am socially shy which makes i harder for me.

Try meeting some people at a book club or at the local park; join some fun activity groups that will help you open up.

Go to lots of night clubs, there's people there. Or go to town, or get a job where you interact with alot of people. Or you can take the easy way out and meet people online who are near you so that you can meet up with them sometime.

When you meet up with friends do you kiss cheeks?

I do, both cheeks - guys and guys - I have a lot of European friends so it's not that unusual, but I think a lot of English people aren't used to it. But sometimes I do it when first meeting people too.

And, no I don't mean their buttocks.

Reply:No, I hate this practice. I live in Germany, and it seems to be the thing to do when you meet friends, but I don't like all this hugging and kissing. My personal space is sacred to me, and I don't like it when people get that close to me.
Reply:Yeah, but only if they feel comfortable with it. Usually girls, but also other guys when I'm meeting up with my Italian friends. I think it's a very civilised custom and I wish people in Britain were more friendly and less uptight.
Reply:usally ill give em a big hug
Reply:i'm English and I do it with girls and guys. just one kiss. One guy i know and have known for ages now double kisses me when he sees me- i never do and it always ends up in a nose clash- bit of a nightmare. i like the one kiss thing when you see someone- its nice. Yeah it might freak sme people out but they'll get over it.
Reply:No we just hug.
Reply:A lot of my friends do. I'm 43 and i never experienced kissing on cheeks. I tend to feel embarassed. lol
Reply:when I meet up with my bf i kiss him on the lips... but I guess thats different lol
Reply:It depends on how good the friend is.

Reply:I don't do that ever unless the other person wants to.

I usually just hug my friends if I haven't seen them in awhile.
Reply:Don't, i respect that you can do what you want, but in north America we don't do that. Please do it to ppl you know, and leave me out of it.
Reply:In the US people are not used to kiss in both cheeks so no i don't.... When i go to Spain or I'm around Europeans then that's another thing, its customary to kiss both
Reply:No, I just hug.

Reply:Yes, but then again I have lived in Athens Greece for the past 33 years and it is the done thing here.

Reply:Yea, I'm English and have always kissed both cheeks, to men and women. All my friends and family do too. In an informal situation, I dont remember the last time I greeted someone without a kiss on the cheek...
Reply:depends which friends, some i do some i dont. usually jus go for a hug
Reply:yeah, lately, but it's a joke.
Reply:depends on the friend if it's close friend then lots of kisses and hugs otherwise a handshake
Reply:Not just cheeks but lips too!

Thats friends though, not first time meeting people

Meet new friends?

whree is the good place to meet new ppl?

like coffee shop,park or bar?

Meet new friends?
it doesn't really matter where you meet them, but you should meet them where you guys can talk. like, take a movie, you don't do anything. you could go to the park and get a coffee and just talk.
Reply:none of them , any other question .
Reply:You can meet new friends in chatting rooms in the websits, libraries, theatres, clubs, universities and colleges...... and coffee shop, park or bar, as you mentioned. It depends on what kinds of friends you are looking for. For example, if you'd like to meet friends who can help you with your study, you'd better go to libraries or universities or colleges.

Can a man meet new female friends while in a committed relationship?

My boyfriend and I have been together for a year and a half. We got engaged, then came red flags. I've never been jealous, but he is a pro athlete and girls throw themselves at him, yet he's from a different culture and says it's normal to have friends of the opposite sex. Thing is, text messages popped up in his phone when I was using it, sometimes at 1:00 in the morning from only one girl. I'm a model and because of both of our contracts, we are in different countries during the off-season. I am with him a lot for the other 8 months and he never has incoming calls from girls. He claims she's an obese 20-year-old he just met, and knows he has a girlfriend, but wants to be his friend. She does not speak our language (Spanish) and after he promised me she wouldn't be calling and that he deleted her, she sent him another text message yesterday. I don't know if I have blinders on, I know the big leagues has an "adultery culture." Am I reading too much into this? Or is it normal?

Can a man meet new female friends while in a committed relationship?
He can have girl friends all over the place, that is fine. But he needs to know the limit. You cant prevent anything from happening, so being jealous isn't to help at all. If he is going to "mess around" he will do it one way or another. So you just need to sit back and relax and enjoy what you both have until you have absolute proof that he is doing something wrong. Good luck!
Reply:its normal but hes' got 2 know his limits

How/Where to meet new friends?? its kinda long but if you care to read i would like that.?

Hello im 21, after high school i figured the people i hung around with the most would be my friends for life. Little did i know 3 years later the 3 i hung around with would end up having kids? My best friend since middle school hes 20 had a kid at 18 right out of high school; i don’t get to see him much anymore. The next one is also 20 just had a kid 8 weeks ago prob not gona see him any more, and finally (i find this a lil ok) hes 25 had a kid a year ago i don’t see him much anymore either. i don’t know if there is anyone else out there like me who lost there 3 best friends in any sort of way but it sucks. Don’t get me wrong there still my friend it’s just that i don’t get to see them anymore and its hurts. How do you cope with this or make new friends that you can trust like them, i have a g/f but guys need guy friends too.

How/Where to meet new friends?? its kinda long but if you care to read i would like that.?
okay well. They are the same people, they just have kidsss. kids are goood, and its a part of life. You should have like a double/triple date (im guessing theyre married?) you could just set it up at someone's house. kids dont matter, they are the same people as before. just ignore the kids, and most likely the mom takes care of the kids so if they interupt, in comes mommy...

ok if you want to make new friends...

find a sport/activity that you just love, and you'll meet tons of people. it definetly helps to make friends if you have a common interest.

I MADE THE BIGGEST MISTAKE OF MY LIFE when i stopped keeping in touch with my friends. I ditched them for more popular ones, and i hated myself for it. it sucks. dude i lost like my 7 best friends. and they were amazing. seriously, your situation isnt a problem because your still young!! if your in college, join clubs, ask people to study with you. DO STUFF OUTSIDE OF SCHOOL TOO. maybe you could ask them if they can like study w/u and then for a break go to the movies/get something to eat.

dude, guys are so much easier to befriend because they aren't so bitchy.

dont try too hard!!!!

anyone can tell if you try too hard.

always stay happy,

smile,

be yourself,

%26amp;%26amp; be positive

:) hope i could help!! good luck.

How did you meet your best friends, and why are you still friends?

I thank God for my friends, and enjoy remembering how we met, and what has kept us in contact over the years. dispite all the changes in life, etc. Looking back as well as forward, tell me your stories, and any tips you may have for keeping friends for life. I'm not talking about romance...just friends...people you enjoy relating to. Have a great day.

How did you meet your best friends, and why are you still friends?
I have friends becase I love them with all my heart.I really do.Even if sometimes they are walking away from I still don't think that they are bad.If one day you hate them and then you are looking at the stars and you're saying:I wish this never hapend.That's how I felt when I lost my nest friend and now she is even out of my class.I was really sad.It was horiblle.So here is a tip:Never think bad about your friends becase then you will be sorry for that.Don't blame them even if it's there falt, okay.By saving them and helping them you get closer to them.That's how you can save your friendship.
Reply:i got most of my close friends in school.... two main things are really important in friendship, 1... find out the similar qualities in you and your friend, 2.... respect the difference in qualities between you and your friend. FRIENDS precious gifts of God
Reply:I first met my best friend in Year 1, she was the first person that spoke to me because I was the new kid. We went over eachothers houses and everything, we were so close that even our mums formed a friendship. Sadly I moved schools again in Year 5, we kind of lost contact for a few months but we bumped into eachother constantly while shopping or at movies, eventually we got a hold of eachothers emails and it goes from there.
Reply:when I was one i kind of noticed him like just there, its not until i turned five that i aknowledged him. at 13 we really connected and by 18 we coulnd't be appart. Now at age 19 I cant stop touching my penis, yes i was talking about my penis..
Reply:I met my best friend when we were in the 5th grade and we have been friends for about 13 years now. I don't know what I would do without her. We do everything together we even follow each other when it comes to jobs. We have worked together at a few different places. She is the only person that I can spend 24/7 with and not get annoyed. Me and her pretty much grew up together and I love her like my sister and I would do anything for her and I know she would do the same for me. We even live together and a lot of people always told us that we would start to hate each other and get fed up with each other but that is not the case because I think we both enjoy the company of each other. As far as tips to keeping friends for life just be true to friends and be there for them when they need you.
Reply:My best girlfriend, we meet when I was 15. 25 yrs later we are still best friends. We may not talk all the time but the connection is still strong and growing.

Ok say you went to your friends house to meet her brother but he wasnt your type.?

Then your friend and her bf try to hook you up with his best friend. You go and meet him and spand the day with them all, like a double date thingy. You flirt with him and you get the vibe that he likes you back. You start to drink and smoke and have a good time, and then your friends bf try and get you to sleep with his best friend. I said that i didnt want to bc im still a virgin, but i kinda wish that i did. I dont know how to explain it. I like him and i want to get to know him better but im scared to text him and start talking to him bc i dont want to make a fool with my self. Like my friends sister KK likes him too(the guy who i like) and she says that he likes her and that they flirt and talk on the phone, but when he was in the truck with me he said that she is not his type.It seems like he likes me bc he was laying his head on mine, and when a song came on it said "lay your head on my shoulder" and he touched me to get my attention but i didnt do any thing. idk help plz

Sounds like love was in the air. You should have definitely slept with him immediately.
Reply:He's into you. or he's just a huge flirt. either way, you should get to know him. i mean, it's great to meet new people right? so go get your phone and text him, saying something simple, like "Hey you. what's up?"
Reply:he may like you, but the best way to find out is to wait and see.
Reply:its obvious he like you but why sleep with him to prove it...

Just let him make the move and if you feel like going farther then do it but only if you feel comfortable with it.
Reply:this guy sounds like player city to me. Be careful! If he wants sex day one then something is up.
Reply:Why on earth would your friends bf try to get you to sleep with this guy? What business is it of his? If you are still a virgin, stay that way until you are REALLY REALLY sure about the person. Sounds like this guy might just be looking for a "pieces of a$$" and you are there. Don't give it up to someone like that. Get to know the person and fall in love. You can only give it away ONCE.
Reply:omgg...dont sleep with him

do u wanna get aids or pregnant? dont think so. dont let him win you over, hes probably the bad boy type. he may be hot but do u wanna face all the consequences? all the trouble? no! dont go for him, he has bad morals and self value. im not being mean but you have to protect your dignity. really. dont get into the game of i like him he likes her she doesnt like him he likes me i dont like bla bla bla. its gonna get messed up and end up hurting you a lot. = experience, trust me.

good luck and THINK about the right guy for you, NOT who your friends pick out.

Reply:first of all getting with your friends bro is not a very good idea. they are related. Next thing you know she'll know all your business and he'll know what you two talked about and she can get mad at you for the things that go on between you and her bro. So be real.
Reply:it's sounds like your young and not ready. why is there such a rush for a relationship first and frienship second? don't let others rush you, take your time and enjoy.
Reply:So go ahed and text him and call him. If he likes you he will responde. and he says he does right? or at least he acts like he does. But also go out and spend time together. This wil put u ahead from the other girl. And if u have a good time he might stop flirting with her. you are not dating so he can flirt with whoever he wants but maybe once he get to know u he will decide that he just wants to be with u.
Reply:follow your heart
Reply:To me, it sounds like you don't have a lot of self-esteem (sorry). Is that how you get men to like you? By having sex with them? Why do you want to lose your virginity so bad? It's a fact that 99% of people who lose their virginity around your age regret it. So make sure you know the reasons *why* you want to do something so life changing. Just because you like someone shouldn't be a good reason for why you should want to sleep with them - at least know the person for a year before you give up something so precious. But like I said, you have a lot to learn and someone in your life hasn't been taking the time to teach you things like this. It's a shame... not you... just the general state of youth intelligence (or lack thereof) these days.

How can I honor old friendships, yet still have time to keep in touch with all the great new friends I meet?

Make new friends

But keep the old

The first is silver

The last is gold

I am having a tough time keeping up with old friends and still having time to hang out with all the great new friends I am meeting. As a full-time working mother, it is becoming harder and harder to find time to nurture ANY kind of friendship with all that is going on, but I know that it is very important not to get caught up and lose touch. I thought of creating a schedule for when I should contact my friends, but this just seems so very "unfriendly". In my mind, the whole thing is supposed to be sort of a "been thinkin' about ya... how are ya?!" Kind of thing. It feels weird to have to schedule or "pencil in" my friends! Why is this so hard for me? When I was in high school, the first thing I'd want to do is get on the phone. Now the time investment just seems so high when balanced with kid's homework, his activities, etc. Sorry for the babble. Any answer will be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

How can I honor old friendships, yet still have time to keep in touch with all the great new friends I meet?
As a mother you don't have to spend full time with any of your friends. Calling, writing notes or sending cards regularly keeps you in touch with them without stealing quality time from your family. If you agree to meet, schedule it ahead so you could find someone to be with the kids. Have the meeting only for a few hours, so you could concentrate on re-bonding. A personal schedule for contacting your friends would be nice - especially when you have to take time to buy presents or cards for an upcoming occasion or celebration.
Reply:there really is no solution to your problem cause we are having problems with the word, "busy" and its really hard, but if i were your friend its enough that you would try to actually contact me, when you have the time and place me in your schedule
Reply:My mom's always talkign abotu how she misses being able to talk to some of her old friends, and she regrets not trying to contact them...

Personally, I think it's great that you're actually putting out the effort to get into contact with them. Maybe you're a bit busier now... a lot busier, and probably more tired, but at least you try, right?

Now, with the wonders of e-mail, it's alot easier to get in contact. You know all those times after the kid(s) are asleep and you've got nothing to do? A quick e-mail's always the easiest solution. Just a quick 'Hi!' when you've got the time is great.
Reply:I don't know why it's hard. I have 4 kids and time for my friends. You must be doing something wrong.
Reply:How about if any of your friends have kids you have your kids have a playdate and do there homework and activities together...that way you have a life and so does your kid!

How does a great guy meet/date a girl when both their friends ruin the meet, even though they like each other?

women say im very confident and often ask me if im single. I am and im not interested in being a player. but it doesnt matter how confident or genuine i am, either her friend will do stuff to pull the girl away even though she has already admitted shes into me, or my freinds says so many useless things or acts odd - he bore her friend and so the friend pulls the other girl away! The uk dating scene is very hard and even though i meet women during the day and in pubs/clubs its so hardcore id have to give up my day job to be successful. Ive got my own life and i dont need a woman, but iwant a quality one... i realsie i may have to date a few before i find someone right for me. Im an attractive guy with a great life and a good job, but it seems almost impossible to make a connection in pubs/clubs over here. and if youve just met someone, the girl is often going to have to pick her friends over you, cause she just met you and has known them for ages.any ideas on how to be more successful?

How does a great guy meet/date a girl when both their friends ruin the meet, even though they like each other?
I think you need to widen your social circle and do things where you will meet quality women.

Go do other things that you are interested in, activities which you know women participate in. If your friend or friends are boring the women around them, go without them. You will have more opportunites to meet women in, say, salsa, art or language classes when you are on your own.

As for the pub/club thing, if the woman you like is pulled away by her friend, walk after her and say to her that she seems like a nice person and you would like to get to know her a little better over a coffee or something and then exchange numbers with her. You have to 'close the deal' even though there seem to be obstacles like her friends and your friends.

Also, get yourself out to more parties. Ask the people you know what's going on in your area. Join groups whose interests you share. Just get out there and socialise. Do different things every week. You will at least have experiences which connect you to wider and wider amounts of people, which will give you more opportunites to meet the quality woman you are seeking.

The more women you meet in places where there isn't the competition of alcohol, noise and friends who are pulling them away, the more likely it is that you will meet someone who will stay and talk long enough for you to do the number exchange in a relaxed way. Good luck.
Reply:Go out on your own, then your friend cant stuff it up for you.

Get a better looking friend that will keep the girls friend interested while you work you magic.

Alot of uk girls are stuck up and after money, well the ones in the south are. I'm a southerner but find that northern lass's are so much friendly and not as stuck up or gold digging.

A quality girl is hard to find, comprise is the only way but never let one walk all over you I learnt my lesson and wont make that mistake again.

Women like confidence and a bit of arrogance.

Good luck
Reply:Your are taking it too seriously. You should be going out and meeting people and having a good time. When the right kind of person comes along don't take it too heavy, be yourself and suggesting meeting up again sometime. Girls will often hide behind their friends as a means of getting away from something they are not really into, wait for some one who is perpared to make a stand to meet you again. The harder you try the more difficult it is. Relax and the girls will come rolling in!
Reply:MAY be you consder friendship first. It is through friendship that a friend becomes a lover. Its through frienddhip that you get to know each other. Its thru frinedship that, you get to understand and to respects wach other at all levels. LAstly its frienship that creates the bond. So why worry? Meet as many lovely ones as you can be friends and give your self the best bondfree time for as long as it is destined to last.

In good time, nature will reveal your better half. Good luck. I am single anyway.
Reply:quit going with your friends...or you can get her number and call her back in private

Her friends want to meet you, what should you do?

Her friends want to meet you, what should you do?

She told me her friends wanted to meet me. How do I pull this off without blowing it off? Any tips? Thanks!

Her friends want to meet you, what should you do?
You should always be yourself. There must be something about you if she wants you to meet her friends. Don't be someone your not because it becomes hard to keep up the act. You shouldn't have to empress her friends for her to like you.
Reply:everything is predetirmined....so act...according....B...cool
Reply:SAY THE TRUTH
Reply:go and meet them

Reply:Try double dating, that way you only meet a few at a time.
Reply:Treat them nice as how you treat your girlfriend. You have to take note that your girlfriend is always hanging out with them and sometimes their impression or idea on you does have a point. But you have to be sincere and act normally.
Reply:Just chill chill
Reply:Try saying sure
Reply:its nice to meet her friends. looks like u dont want to meet them but maybe u have ur own reason so tell her why u dont want to.
Reply:Invite them all out with YOUR FRIENDS.

So you can turn the tables, have your friends evaluate hers.

That way instead of interrogating you, you can do that to them.

Women love to be in charge and gossip....dont let them.
Reply:Be yourself. Be confident. Your girlfriend sees something special in you. So, others may see the same as well.
Reply:Go to hell
Reply:Just be yourself, don't put on an act, they will know. And be real nice to her. The better you are to her, the more her friends will like you. So don't get into an argument with her while they are around.
Reply:meet them. see if she has any cute friends that you can upgrade with.
Reply:tell her u dont wanna get distracted..hence u dont wanna get close to any other gal!

n as far as guys are considered..simply say-"u rnt intesrested"

Friend who won't let me meet his other friends?

I have a friend who is so reluctant about introducing me to his other friends...we're both adults by the way. This just seems a bit odd to me. He tells me that they're a private part of his life which I think is complete BS. He talks about them all the time so they can't be too private. I've seen pictures of them, too...so how private can they really be? That's just stupid in my opinion. There seems to be no real reason why I can't other than he just doesn't want me to, which makes no sense to me. We've been friends for over 6 years and I've never met a single one of his friends although he's met all of mine. He seems to think we're in 1st grade and that we're "secret friends." What's your opinion?

Friend who won't let me meet his other friends?
God why are these people so in need of entering a self inflicted prison of pain and emotional abuse? Tell him to go to h*ll and then you go find some self respect and at least one real friend, girl get it together you make us real girls look bad,
Reply:He's not confident enough in himself, OR he's ashamed of you, OR he wants to have other girlfriends. Any way you look at it, I'd say look elsewhere for a guy who will respect you.
Reply:Well, he doesn't have to introduce you to his friends if he doesn't want to. The only reason I could think of as to why he doesn't want you to know,is because he might be afraid once you guys meet, you'll forget about him; become better friends etc. It does happen, I've seen it happen first hand, or maybe they know something you don't. I don't share friends, I know it sounds greedy of me, but I'm afraid if they meet-well you know. Hum.. because I am friends with a lot of different people, then again, I don't know. But this is the only reason why I can think of this. I guess if you want to know you have to ask him.
Reply:thats lame....ask him straight up why...tell him you think thats BS!
Reply:He's married. Or, you know, if not actually married, then he's got a good female girlfriend or lover that he doesn't want to learn about you.

I suppose there's some excuse as to why he's never with you on holidays and his birthday, too, right? He must be very handsome or very rich to get away with this sort of thing in the 21st century.
Reply:It seems to me that if you two have been friends for that long, what's the big deal with not wanting you to meet his friends? Something doesn't seem right about that. It sounds to me as if there is something that he doesn't want you to know about him %26amp; maybe he's afraid that if he allows you to meet his friends that one of them may say something that he doesn't want you to know.
Reply:Good chance that He may be lying to you about who He really is.
Reply:Be careful, you cannot just trust him.
Reply:He is afraid that his friends might tell you things about him , things that he has not shared with you.... that why they are private...like in private lifestyle.. why are u introducing all your friends to him..."yes" becos you have nothing to hide.

What's the best way to make friends and meet new people?

i've been friends with my best friend for over 9yrs. i've always been around her and never met any new people. Now our friendship has ended and i'm completly confused on what to do next. the reason our friendship ended, she was completly snobbish and didn't care about me and didn't want to do anything with me ever since she met her stupid lover, Mark who by the way isn't even good for her the make a horribe couple.

What's the best way to make friends and meet new people?
Depending on your age- join some clubs/groups- take some night classes in art or activities.. get involved with your community- volunteer.. visit a favorite coffee shop or art museum.. something that interests you. Strike up a convo with people..

good luck
Reply:I have probs with friends too. My problem is I don't like to get too close (although people tend to get close to me) and I'm scared I'll end up hurting them cuz I'm just not the best at "keeping in touch". I have moments when I wish I had a bud but other moments where it's like "ugh leave me alone!!!" Now how does someone like ME find a friend? That's a tough question.
Reply:yeah, non helpful but i know how you feel. i hate meeting new people i go really shy. if you want to go meet new people, then if you are in school go to someone you know in a different group and spend some time with their friends. be yourself which is really hard, but at the end of the day, they dont know you so they cant judge you. same goes for if you go uni or college.

The internet is a fine place - but it can be scarey.

There are a lot of phoneys here.

Have you tried getting out and involved in local or community activities....volunteering at schools, hospitals, or other institutions gives you a wonderful exposure to new people.

Oh...and do your 360 page...you meet lots of nice folks that way too!

How could a 12 year old boy bully victim and a 25 yr old bored woman meet and be friends?

I mean just friends, obviously..They are two characters in my English essay...great characters but I dont know how to make them meet and BEGIN to form a relationship....

Any ideas?

How could a 12 year old boy bully victim and a 25 yr old bored woman meet and be friends?
Maybe in a library - he's hiding from bullies in the stacks and she, an avid reader, stumbles across him. Or a sporting goods store, or wedding dress shop, or a pet store.
Reply:ever saw "Man without a face" with mel gibson? similar situation.
Reply:they could meet at a book store or something. you could have the 12 year old looking at a book and the 25 year old see him and tell him its a good book and it can start off from there. or think of something that they both like to do and have them meet at a place where you do that, or just have them bump into each other randomly somewhere.
Reply:Internet chatroom. Enjoy the irony
Reply:The woman sees the boy being bullied on his way home from school, and she goes and tells the bullies to scram and asks him if he is alright and stuff. He is really grateful to her and keeps talking to her, and she is annoyed with him, but secretly enjoys his talking. So she ends up chatting back and they become friends.

How can a guy with no friends meet a girl?

As far as I seing, most couples get to know each other through friends, at parties or reunions, however I don't have any friends, so I don't go to parties, I being going to clubs by myself, but I still haven't get any luck finding a girlfriend, I'm really desperate.

How can a guy with no friends meet a girl?
Clubs are not always the best places to find girls because they know guys are looking to hook- up. Try places like the beach, bookstore, coffee shop, etc. Good luck
Reply:First of all, you should never be desperate for a girfriend. Thats really stupid. Second, why the heck don't you have any friends? youre such a loser!! My gosh, get a life!!!!!
Reply:aww..i loveee clubbss xD
Reply:first…

Make friends with girls that are nice and that you are atracted to,

Listen to what they have to say

Complement them

Make them feel special

Ask them to go out if you like them enough
Reply:If you are going to school, try and make friends because that is the only way you can find a girlfriend.
Reply:join a gym there is plenty of girls there
Reply:don't give up, you'll meet the right girl for you.
Reply:I found my quiet shy no friends husband online ... I'd say join a few clubs, get a few online accounts and go for it when you see a girl you like!

Reply:Well, I tried to read your profile...didn't find anything.

How serious are you about finding friends? You probably took a good first step by asking your question here.

I was working one day when this man walked in. I didn't notice him. But he asked my co-worker if I was seeing anyone %26amp; then he asked me to dinner. Simple...

If it doesn't work out, you try again with someone else.

Good Luck
Reply:go look on myspace.
Reply:A lot of people know each other through dating website or community services, why don't you try one of this? Or enrolling for a class in college is another chance.

Good luck!
Reply:funny you should ask this me and my boyfriend of over 1 year are about to get married. He is divorced and I have never been married. Neither one of us really go anywhere and have very few real friends. My mother went to get a haircut one day and he was there getting his hair cut. The beautician and my mom were friends and he happened to be the beauticians brother in law. My mom showed him pictures of me and gave him my number. Now I don't know what I would do without him. Fate happens when the time is right with or without friends. Hang in there you will find that someone when you least expect it!!
Reply:just be cool and dont be too shy... also dont go for just one type a girl... You may hve to shoot below your standards until you get used to being around girls so that your confidence grows.... try to find something intersting about the girl you are hitting on to talk about for a little while that you actually know stuff about. This will keep her intrigued but dont tell her your life story.
Reply:How don't you have any friends? Are you quite? Talk to me babies.
Reply:first off u cant be desprate cuz if u seem too easy then girls are not gonna give u a chance .... the way i see it is dat girls see guys like resturants if dey see dat no one wants some den why should they eat der so if u act desperate den dey know dat no one wants some so why should dey .... so all u gotta do is put urself out der and always be confident cuz yea u might get rejected but whats so bad .... and da first step to girls thinking ur datable is for u to think ur datable
Reply:myspace
Reply:wowow um have u ever considered trying to make friends?

if not maybe try online dating services
Reply:your not alone dude my guess would be online dating only option seeing as you have no friends
Reply:plentyoffish.com It free! It's a great way to meet new people.
Reply:Try joining a league of mixed doubles at the bowling alley or even a men's league to pick up a few friends.

At lunch go to a sandwich place and notice a woman who comes in alone without a ring sitting at a table by herself. Ask if you can join her. Tell her a little about yourself.

Is there a swim club or a gym of some sort that you could join?
Reply:well that is probably the problem, ppl can sense desperation. Join a club, volunteer some place. There are alot of ways to make friends and just because you have them doesn't mean you are gonna get a gf. I d say work on the friend issue first and the other will fall in to place by itself Good Luck
Reply:1st, why dont you have friends, you should try talking to random people at school or wherever you work if that doesnt work. Go to shopping malls, lots of girls around their, try your luck with them if that doesnt work go onto MTVs made or just my space, good luck
Reply:Gustavo, do not come across as desperate. Women pick up on this instantly. This is the equivalent of female repellent.

If you want to meet a variety of new people, view the profiles on a match or dating service. I joined Yahoo Personals for very little money, created an honest profile and had the opportunity to browse profiles for dozens of interesting women in my city.

It's a little odd at first, but after a few "hello" emails you will be able to tell gf material from women who just aren't good matches for you.

Change your attitude from "searching" to being confident and happy with yourself and you will start to attract women you didn't even know where out there.

Oh, and the instant you get a girlfriend, women will start approaching you and wanting to talk to you. I have no idea where (in the cosmos) this comes from, but it's true.

Good luck to the new you ~
